About me
I’m a first year M.Eng. student from College of Computing and Data Science (CCDS), Nanyang Technological University. I am currently working as a research intern on MLLM at Huawei Singapore. My research interest includes computer vision, computer graphics and embodied AI.
I am very fortunate to be advised by Prof. Hanwang Zhang of MReaL lab from CCDS, Nanyang Technological University. Previously, I received my B.S. degree at School of Computer Science & Technology, Beijing Institute of Technology. I’ve been working at Institute for AI Industry Research (AIR), Tsinghua University supervised by Prof. Hao Zhao.
